Feel free to elaborate! I'm genuinely curious.

I was just scrolling through the timeline and accidentally opened this image in front of my friends, you know.

But yes, I need to apologize it’s an art not something that I need to be embarrassed about.

I also opened this in front of my friends. Nothing happened.

No need to apologize!

It's not an easy question, and it's something I think it's good to reflect on. I think it's fair to say that pornography has a huge impact on society, and one that is not often talked about. One such effect might be that people start seeing nudity and art differently. The public debate seems to be lagging behind, maybe as people find it uncomfortable. The ambiguous category "not safe for work" certainly doesn't help.

At the end of the day the line of what one is comfortable is drawn on a personal level, yet on a platform such as this it is shared internationally with no centralized authority. It's not an easy question.

At least it blurs out the image though…
